All very true. The respawning happens in Chungking after all Chinese cities fall, I think. After it is held by the JA is not a danger once you eliminate the visible units, which took me months of seige [Chungking had fallen, surrendering all there, but the horde respawned at Chengten, and 66 units fell upon Chungking, JA barely holding out until I could bring the old seige force back from the Yenan seige] This JA garrison of Chungking [everything I had not required for garrison, plus 3 big divs from Kuantung Army] finally forced 55 of 66 units/HQ to surrender June 29, 1943 but the remaining 11 units, all zero supply and combat power individually are somehow credited in the group total [in combat results, not status before combat] as having 90,000 infantry/154,000 total and were hell to put down after all my efforts. I had to double manual to correct this and then resume. I manually forced these remaining Chinese units out of Chungking in order to have them fight on their own. It's regrettable but something is whacko there. Just to see, I had my big Chungking garrison do a deliberate attack [how is this possible with no enemy units present?] on the city, once freed of Chinese besiegers. It executed a 0-1 attack against 160K AI forces somehow imbedded in the city [yet not visible to either side]. I wonder if the other Chinese cities are the same [apparently not]. This was a flaw in the old DOS game, where reinforcements would pop in on schedule after a spawning city was occupied [Calcutta in that case].
